The Senate got back the results of the investigation , theres a hearing today and expect some fireworks. A lot of angry senators preening in front of the camera and when all is said and done probably no changes.

Jamie (I'm richer than you) D-bag won't be there , they will have to use ina drew as the pinata for the day .

    I'd be surprised if anything of substance happens. Nothing to see here, pay no mind peons, move along, that kind of thing.

    Will Elizabeth Warren be asking questions?

    So far its just carl levin and john mccain . I'm wondering if there is an overall strategy here in not calling jamie in. They are working the underlings over pretty good initially maybe something will slip out that puts him under some pressure .

    The London crew either wasn't called or being out of the country couldn't be called.

    The inquisitors all receive large campaign cash from JPM.
    Look for a wink after each "tough" question....all show for low information voters.

    Why the OCC stopped getting data
    by David Benoit

    Levin says it was clear that Jamie Dimon ordered the bank to stop sending profit/loss data from the investment bank to the OCC.

    Braunstein looks a little taken aback with his first question. Thinks about it, then says, yes, that was correct. Dimon made the order.

    He says it was a period of two weeks that the data stopped going to the OCC. Braunstein says it was an attempt to make sure the data was only going to the regulators. image
